Shannon Tower Band Crowd Funding Campaign 2024
but did you know
Hey friends! Our new EP, “but did you know”, is finally ready for you ears. But did you know, this is only the next step on our journey. And where we go from here is, in part, up to you! That's right, we are requesting your support and there are three ways you can contribute.
- By downloading and sharing our music, with everyone you know. Help spread the word.
- By coming out. To one of our shows. And bring a bunch of friends.
- By donating to our crowdfunding campaign. Here's what it's all about:
It's been nearly 20 years since Shannon Tower Band first walked on stage. Since that time we've performed on just about every stage in the greater Portland metropolitan area. We have released two complete albums and one 5-song EP to date and have enjoyed modest local radio airplay. Over the years, nearly 15 different musicians have been proud to call themselves members of this band. It's been a great ride so far and we have never been more excited than we are today.
This is absolutely the strongest lineup of musicians so far, and we don't mind telling you, we're having a blast playing together. During this past year we have re-tooled our music, updating arrangements, writing new sections and adding a whole lot of new material. Everyone in the band brings their own unique influence and style, and we think this is the best we have ever sounded.
In addition to bringing our new sound to you, our biggest and most beloved fans, our next major objective is to get into the studio and record a new album. In order to do that, and deliver the kind of quality production demanded these days, we are asking for you to help by contributing to our crowdfunding campaign. We have set a first round goal of $10,000 by July 1st, 2024. All proceeds will go to recording, marketing, and merchandise development for the promotion of Shannon Tower Band. (See FAQs below for more details)
So thank you. First, for being our true and deeply appreciated fans and supporters. And second, for any and all contributions that will help bring Shannon Tower Band music to the masses. We appreciate you more than you will ever know!!!!

FAQ
How much money are we trying to raise? - Our initial goal is $10,000.
What is the money being used for? - As Independent Artists, we manage all of the recording, distribution and promotion of our music, and this costs money. All proceeds raised will go to these efforts as well as:
- Merchandise Development
- Legal Fees (Copyright Laws, LLC Establishment, Partnership Agreements, Music Ownership Rights, etc.)
- Social Media and Web Presence and Optimization
How long is this campaign? - Our initial goal is to wrap up the first round of funding by July 1, 2024
What's in it for me? - Great question! Currently, all of our music on this site is yours for free. As we write new music and record the new album, and once we have developed some shiny, happy merchandise to share, we will be offering these things to you, our loving supporters, either at a discount or free (depending on your contribution). We haven't got all of that stuff sorted yet, but don't let that stop you from participating! Check back often for band news, upcoming shows, and updates on the campaign.
